1993 Canada: 25 Cents Caribou

BU (Brilliant Out of Circulation) Quality — Grade: MS-63 CHOICE

Description of the room

Following the themed year of 1992, the 1993 25-cent coin marked the definitive return of the classic caribou motif for the decade. Struck in pure nickel, this coin boasts a deep, "white" luster. The MS-63 Choice grade designates an uncirculated specimen, selected for its vivid luster and a surface significantly cleaner than average. It is a choice coin for collectors who demand superior quality for their annual collection.

The Obverse (Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II)

The obverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Dora de Pédery-Hunt. The relief is crisp and the original minting luster is omnipresent in the fields, surrounding the royal portrait with a satin sheen.

The Reverse

Emanuel Hahn's famous Caribou design is perfectly rendered here. The striking is vigorous, revealing every detail of the antlers, eye, and coat. The date "1993" is engraved with exemplary clarity.
